"Don't worry, I won't hurt you.  I only want you to have some fun."  And we did, we still do.  I'm curious about this album (which I'm guessing I picked up in the '90s), the hits aside, because, well, it's Prince, and Prince is weird.  Even this dance classic is about the frickin' apocalypse!  "Mommy, why does everyone have the Bomb?"  In what has turned into a long sheltering-in-place pop-musical-historical party, this song is a little too apropos.  If the choices are die or dance your life away, there's really only one way to land.
